I have only recently started working at this company.
During my interview, my supervisor reminded me to take a look at Tianyancha~
I wasn't scared. Working means making some trade-offs~
When my father needed surgery and we often needed money, I prayed to Heaven for any job, as long as the salary was good~
Now my salary is better than before. Working overtime is exhausting, but I don't have many complaints. I know what I want~
I also worked overtime at my previous job, and the boss was very nice. But I thought about it this way: Even including overtime pay, the total for the entire month still wasn't as high as the salary offered by Evanda, so... I don't focus on the company's gimmicks. Free drinks and snacks + approved leave without deductions + lunch and dinner provided may sound nice, but Evanda actually pays overtime. The salary at my previous job wasn't high, raises were difficult to get, and leave was deducted as it should be, so I still chose Evanda~ Overall, Evanda still came out ahead by more than 15,000 NTD per month.
On my first day, I really felt like crying. I thought I was so stupid—why did I leave a stable job for something else!
But after many days, I found that the department supervisor is very nice, my colleagues are great, and the senior managers are reasonable and respectful toward employees.
I am still very tired, but I am willing to put in the effort~ I want to keep trying here~ I'm sharing my feelings with everyone~
Negative reviews tend to attract more attention, so people will probably say that my sharing is sponsored content. That's okay. I just want to give it another try~ I believe I can do it!
Short-staffed
Lunch provided (up to NT$80)
Cheap cookies and drinks available in limited quantities
Other~~can't think of any
If you want to work yourself to death, go for it (DingTalk keeps ringing after work and on holidays)
If you want to go~~it's best to negotiate a high salary through connections first
Hope you don't run into colleagues who steal credit for your work and only know how to talk
Mid-Autumn Festival and Dragon Boat Festival bonuses aren't paid until after the holidays
Year-end bonus~~wait patiently
Most people here are very rude. The person described so outrageously on Jobmentors—whose various exploits most people here call “President X”—is, unbelievably, all true. If you want to come and see for yourself, you’re welcome! The “Swearing King” is certainly not all talk.
Boss X is all talk. Relying on his wealth, he treats people like dogs. What he says and what he does are different every time. We work overtime every day and get berated until we’re made to feel completely worthless. I’ve also seen a high-ranking official from a certain XX department curse the boss behind his back, yet lick the boss’s boots in the big group chat. It’s truly disgusting to watch.
Still thinking
An uncivilized company
If you're a dog, you can go
The managers who interviewed me were quite interesting.
The receptionist/HR woman was really rude. After the interview, while I was still considering the offer, she called to say that the salary was non-negotiable because, honestly, the position didn't require much expertise and there wasn't really anything we specifically needed you to do. She kept apologizing and saying she had to be direct. I also have to be direct: thank you for making the decision for me.
The company provides some snacks and drinks that employees can help themselves to.
The salary and bonuses are fairly generous.
You work yourself to death with overtime. QQ keeps buzzing nonstop after work and on holidays, and there is never a day when the work is truly finished.
Of course, there is no overtime pay or compensatory leave either. Anyone who wants to challenge their physical limits can come give it a try.
The gentleman who greeted me was quite handsome and very polite. Drinks were available.
The interview was for outsourced voice actors, but the floor was not disclosed at all during the interview (the address said the 4th floor, but it was later moved to the 7th floor). The interview lasted far too long: it was originally supposed to finish within an hour, but it was extended to two and a half hours. There was no professional recording studio for testing; instead, it was a very basic setup where you watched sentences projected on a screen and read them aloud to everyone. We had to wait a very long time for the client in the middle of the process. The interviewees were not given fixed numbers either. They simply read the sentences, and the recordings were passed around via cellphone for the collaborating clients to listen to. Some people arrived at different times (an hour apart), yet they were still tested together. The order in which testing began was also different each time (for example, this person might be tested first, but the next time they might be tested three places later), so the process seemed poorly organized.
None
I interviewed for a systems engineer position and was asked a pile of questions (this was the easier set; there was another, more difficult one). They brought up questions about various vendors' construction projects. The manager also said that he had managed more than a thousand servers, and that good kids should remember to read more books and obtain a few more certifications so that in the future they would be closer to selling fried chicken cutlets.
None
I have never been to the company, but I was utterly stunned by the attitude of the HR staff when notifying me about the interview.
When they contacted me by phone, I reminded them that, during the interview period, I expected the salary to be within the range stated on my résumé. Since this referred to the base salary, I needed to know the salary excluding allowances.
Therefore, I hoped they could evaluate this before sending an interview notification.
However, the HR representative said she did not know and told me to ask the supervisor during the interview (isn't salary-related work supposed to be handled by HR?). Otherwise, I was told to leave a message through 104.
My résumé clearly stated that I did not want to be notified if the salary was not within my expected range. After reviewing my résumé and notifying me, they still expected me to make a personal pilgrimage there just to ask about it?
This kind of condescending recruiting attitude is truly difficult to commend.
1. Two meals are provided (up to an $80 limit).
2. Simple cookies and drinks are provided.
3. You don't have to worry about no one doing the work (because if you don't work, you don't get paid).
4. Newcomers with the ability can try negotiating a salary slightly higher than the industry standard. There is a good chance it will be somewhat above average.
5. The technical department has a decent level of intensity. The two main R&D staff members, D and J, are both very nice and even teach some technical-related topics. Five-star review (specifically for these two people, not the company).
1. In some departments, overtime is practically unlimited, and you may have to work overtime at any time on holidays (there is no overtime pay, plus a mandatory rule requiring you to clock in on time and work overtime).
2. As for the management department, it basically has no particularly good management abilities. Overall, the work intensity is not very high; rely on yourself.
3. If you know how to curry favor, things will be easier for you, but you still need to know how to handle basic tasks (some people apparently don't and still manage to survive).
4. Some people in higher-level positions think they are extremely capable and that all their decisions are correct. If you have too many ideas of your own, you may even get scolded.
5. The so-called numerical planners are basically just causing trouble—nothing but a joke—but everything has to go through them. It's really mindless.
6. Changing things as soon as they are said is practically routine.
7. Senior managers often contradict themselves: they forget what they said yesterday today, then turn around and scold you for it. (WTF?)
8. SOPs are indeed necessary, but they are clearly overused. It's essentially treating people like machines—a terrible system.
9. Business and customer service are the company's largest departments. Marketing, technology, products, and so on are all just trivial matters.
10. The above are comments made by people who have actually worked here. I am not merely criticizing the bad while withholding the good; in fact, there really are a great many bad aspects, warranting a one-star negative review.
no
The female demon boss surnamed Liu (I’m not saying it’s Vice President Albee) cries in front of the big boss when she can’t win an argument, saying that everyone bullies her. If you don’t comply with her wishes, she finds a way to get rid of you; if you do comply with her wishes, she bestows an overtime assignment on you.
1. You don’t need to know how to do anything; you just need to know how to flatter your superiors (especially the general manager and vice president~ XOXO)
2. You don’t need to know how to do anything; you just need to pretend to be busy
3. You don’t need to know how to do anything; you just need to have your subservience turned up to the max
4. You don’t need to know how to do anything; it’s best if you have no brain
You don’t need to know how to do anything Awesome
With so many advantages, do we still need disadvantages??
As long as your IQ is even slightly normal, you can stand out.
All your colleagues are experts at slacking off.
This is the first time I've seen a company with such thick skin, playing multiple roles to speak on its own behalf.
Can you face reality? No matter how much you put on an act, it won't make people feel favorably toward your company.
The salary is higher than the industry average and there are also bonuses, but consider your physical condition before coming.
Busy, but you learn quickly too. A good place to enhance your résumé.
The salary is quite high for the same position.
There aren't enough drinks for me.
The supervisor is super nice, and the company benefits are great.
The colleagues are also very easy to get along with. Nothing but good things～～
Sorry, I can't think of anything.
That’s not important; everything is so bad that they need to aggressively solicit reviews.
They don’t value professionalism. I suggest they stop hiring technical staff and spend more money outsourcing everything instead.
Otherwise, management simply doesn’t have the ability to manage.
This kind of review says absolutely nothing about what advantages the company actually has over others.
What are the work SOPs and procedures like? What are the benefits? How do colleagues get along? What is the work environment like?
It could clearly have all been covered in one post, but they forcibly split it into several posts—and most of it is just empty talk.
Do you think all applicants are fresh graduates or middle school students whose minds are easy to fool??
Advantages?? Applicants can see how idle the managers or boss at this company must be.
They even have time to come here and flood the reviews. Companies where the boss OR managers are this idle are 80% terrible.
At good companies, managers and bosses sometimes personally train or supervise employees instead of just wandering around here.
Instead of flooding this site with positive reviews and making fools of themselves, the company should treat its employees better.
There are too many manufactured reviews, and they praise things far too much. No matter how much they brag, an interview will immediately reveal
whether the company is a minefield or a terrible job. The company should show some self-respect.
The boss is so idle they have time to flood the feed.
The employees are exhausted to death.
Ivanta Technology Co., Ltd., please do not use this platform to manipulate your own reviews. There is always a reason for negative reviews, so please face them honestly!!
Hypocritical and dishonest
Fucking shitty company
Fucking shitty company
When it's not busy, there's quite a bit of freedom; unlike other places, there aren't restrictions placed on everything.
Busier than other companies, but you learn quickly.
Eat whatever you want every day; colleagues support one another.
The atmosphere could use a change.
The atmosphere at work is pleasant, and colleagues help one another.
There are too many group dinners, which is a bit hard on the wallet.
1. Unlimited cookies and drinks are provided.
2. A meal allowance of NT$80 is provided for both lunch and dinner.
3. Flexible working hours.
The drawbacks mentioned here are all real, so don’t assume otherwise. At first, I thought I wouldn’t need to work overtime as often as people on the forum said, and believed I would be efficient enough to finish each day’s work that day. In reality, I often worked overtime until 8 or 9 p.m., and even had to keep checking messages on my phone during holidays. The work itself isn’t difficult, but the people making decisions usually don’t make them until the last minute, so those handling the backend work end up exhausted.
For administrative positions (e.g., accounting, procurement, management, human resources, etc.), you should be mentally prepared for frequent overtime and having to handle urgent matters on holidays. The company’s turnover is too high, the processes are chaotic, and the SOPs are not very well established. Working here is not only emotionally draining but also mentally exhausting.
The information the company asks candidates to fill out during interviews explicitly mentions that work may also need to be handled on holidays, so this is true! If you are not prepared to work overtime, please don’t stubbornly assume you can come and try it anyway.
However, the company treats people with professional skills better (e.g., design, technical roles, etc.), so these positions may be worth trying. (That’s just my personal impression.)
The starting salary is relatively high compared with others in the industry.
The decision-making is a complete mess, angering a bunch of vendors.
Also, whatever you do, don’t upset the vice president. Keep your distance if you can.
Free lunch and dinner
The boss’s classic quotes:
1. “Your idea isn’t creative; even an elementary school student could come up with it.”
2. “I pay everyone a high salary, so it’s only natural that I expect everyone to work overtime.”
3. “As long as you complete your tasks, I don’t care what happens in the process—even if you argue and get into a fight.”
4. “Don’t try to overturn decisions I’ve made, so don’t come back to me to confirm my decisions.”
5. “I earn hundreds of millions a year, so I think the decisions I make should be better than yours, right?”
None
The questions in the personality test during the interview were all about confirming whether you are a very submissive person.
The interviewer had a bad attitude, comparing things from different systems and then saying that you didn’t understand. They seemed very self-important.
Almost everyone there is an idiot, so you’ll shine brilliantly without having to work too hard.
They don’t treat employees like human beings. You’ll work overtime until you drop dead, and even if you finish your work, you absolutely must not leave on time and go home. Otherwise, everyone will say that you don’t have enough work, have it too easy, and ask why you’re allowed to leave on time. On top of that, there is no overtime pay. Every evening at closing time, the receptionist will tell everyone to clock out first, and then continue working.
The company’s one and only guiding principle: You have to suck up to the lazy boss. The company pays your salary, so you’re their fucking dog; even if they work you to death, you still owe the company, because the company pays your salary.
Provides lunch and dinner
A company whose only remaining value is money. If you have brains and ability, you'd better not go there! They only need idiots and slaves
Free lunch and dinner, so you don’t have to think about what to eat.
The salary is decent.
The team atmosphere is abusive. The less capable you are, as long as you’re willing to listen to the boss, the more likely you are to get a senior position.
What do you think you’ll learn here? Probably bureaucracy and a lack of respect for expertise.
Everything has to follow an SOP, reducing people’s value to the lowest level. There is a lot of superficial work, with no concern for the substance of what actually gets done.
If you like being mistreated, this is a great place for you.
Want to join the game industry? This place has nothing to do with the game industry.
Drinks are available for you to enjoy freely
Those considering positions in the Marketing Department, don't come. The company policies and management are a complete mess, and you're also expected to work overtime both weekend days without conditions.
The company benefits are good, and the starting salary is higher than others'.
An overtime nightmare—the company's good benefits are basically just to buy your overtime.
Bonuses also depend on luck. Today the boss may say you're great; tomorrow they might say you're useless and can't do anything.
The entire company is caught up in internal conflicts, making it very difficult to work there—unless you're someone who knows how to curry favor with the powerful.
Because, as the boss bluntly puts it, the most important thing for employees is putting on a good appearance!
A paradise for capable employees with dreams; a hell for irresponsible employees who are lazy and bring negative energy.
If you want to slack off, don't come. Supervisors will keep a close eye on you and guide you.
Although it’s a little tiring, I’ve really received quite a lot in bonuses. The company is quite generous with money, and my pay has never been docked for being late.
The main thing you need to worry about is your weight.
